Event Standard
Walk with purpose, walk for a cause!
Join the 19th annual Pink Ribbon Walk, the walk against breast cancer. Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women worldwide and your participation demonstrates support to those whose lives are affected by breast cancer. No one should walk alone in their breast cancer journey – do your part and join the fight today at Toyosu Park this April! Participants are encouraged to wear their brightest, pinkest outfit.
The pink ribbon is an international symbol representing awareness and hope for breast cancer patients, survivors, and their supporters. Pink ribbon pins support the Japan Society of Breast Health in raising funds to help create greater awareness of breast cancer and spread the importance of breast screening and early detection.
Don’t forget to visit the booths and food trucks! In previous years, the Pink Ribbon Walk have featured the Pink Ribbon Donut Cafe, a photo #hashtag booth, and a mammography info booth. 2020 booths TBA. Leave some time too, to check out Toyosu – home to a mammoth-sized LalaPort mall, teamLab Planets Tokyo, and the Toyosu fish market or the “new Tsukiji”.
¥500 from your entry fee will be donated to the Japan Society of Breast Health.
